Any consumer that calls `new Wallet(privateKey)` (the package\u0027s primary advertised API) silently transmits the secret material to the attacker\u0027s Telegram bot, granting the attacker full control of the victim\u0027s Ethereum funds. Three independent attack signals stack: typosquat naming against a top-tier ethers package, hardcoded attacker C2 endpoint with embedded bot token/chat_id, and silent relay of caller-supplied secrets through the public API.\n",
